Website design for accounting firms, lawyers, notaries and advisors

An accounting, law or notary firm website should state plainly which files the firm takes on, introduce each professional with their exact title, offer online booking and give clients a secure way to send documents. Tax deadlines and the advertising rules of the professional order also shape what goes on the site.

What do clients look for on an accounting firm website?

Most people land on an accounting firm website with one specific question. Do you work with self-employed people? Incorporated businesses? Estates? A services page that lists "tax, accounting, advisory" answers none of that. What works is one page per type of client, written the way that client talks: personal tax returns, financial statements for a small business, monthly bookkeeping, succession planning. Add the name of the CPA who handles it, what to bring to the first meeting and how to hand over paperwork. A firm that lays this out clearly gets fewer calls that go nowhere and more requests from the kind of clients it actually wants.

How can clients send tax documents without using email?

A T4 slip, a notice of assessment or a passport copy sent as an attachment sits in two inboxes for years. Under Quebec's Law 25, the firm is responsible for that personal information. An accountant, lawyer or notary website should therefore point to a secure upload portal with account login, encrypted transfer and access limited to the professional on the file. The portal itself often comes from software the firm already uses. The website explains it in plain words and puts the button where clients look for it: at the top of the page and in the booking confirmation. A short page on what to send, and what never to send by email, saves a lot of mistakes during tax season.

What can a lawyer or notary publish on their website?

Lawyers, notaries, CPAs and financial planners in Quebec each answer to a professional order that regulates their advertising. In practice, the site avoids promising outcomes, comparing itself to colleagues or using any title the person does not hold. Each professional's title appears on their profile exactly as their order recognizes it. Beyond that, every order has its own rules, and the copy gets checked against yours before launch. None of this stops a site from being useful. A notary can walk through the steps of buying a house, and a lawyer can describe what happens at a first consultation. Those pages often bring in clients through search, because they answer the questions people actually type.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions: Professional services

Can clients book a lawyer or notary appointment online?
Yes. The site shows each professional's open slots and asks only for a name, contact details and the type of matter. The details of the case are discussed at the consultation, not in a form.
Can an accountant's website show tax deadlines?
Yes, and it gives clients a reason to come back. A card can count down the days to the next filing date, like the one on the Archipel CPA demo. The dates are updated once a year, in one place.
Does a marketing agency or financial planner need the same kind of site?
The basics are the same: say who you work for, show the team and make first contact easy. A marketing agency leans on past projects and how it works. A financial planner puts the focus on their title, how they are paid and what the first meeting looks like.
Are Verso CPA, Archipel CPA and Ancrage real firms?
No. They are demo sites with made-up brands, like Cap Boréal and Élan Marketing. They show layouts and features a real firm can adapt under its own name.
How much does a site like these cost, and how long does it take to go live?
The price is set after a no-commitment scoping meeting, based on the number of pages, the languages, the copy to write and features like booking or an online store. A simple showcase site goes live quickly; an online store or a client portal takes longer. If you have a fixed date, we build the schedule around it.
Do I own the website?
Yes. The domain name is registered in your name, the copy, images and analytics are yours, and the code is handed over on request.
